Fairfax Media 2010 Intern Search Nears End Selections for this year’s Fairfax Media journalism internships have nearly been completed. Fairfax Media editorial development manager Clive Lind said only a few placings remained, and all applicants should know of their situations by now. “We are working through final selections and emailed applicants of progress,” he said. Any who were unsure of their status should email him. The intern selection process was a long and rigorous one and he thanked everyone – applicants, editors and journalism school tutors – for their patience. Only a few of the 180 who applied could be selected and he urged those who had not been selected to continue with a career in journalism because there will still be plenty of opportunities, even in Fairfax publications and websites. This year as well, for a variety of reasons, some newspapers have decided not to take interns, Lind said. Overall, the standard of applicants again was very high. All journalism schools are seeking applications and he hoped all applicants had applied.
